For most of us when we see the white trumpet shaped lilies we think of Easter. With Easter less than a week away we are seeing these white lilies everywhere.

The color white is a symbol of hope, innocence and purity. All of which are also associated with Easter. Tradition says that these beautiful white lilies came up where the drops of Christ's sweat fell to the ground in his final hours. Another reason why you will see so many white lilies around church alters.

There are many legends surrounding these white lilies and the Christian religion. Whether or not you believe the legends, the white Easter Lily is a beautiful flower that is worthy of a place of honor in your home and its decor. It is elegant, simple and tall enough to make a stunning statement.
